Chapter Twenty-Three: A Familiar Taste

"Senior Chen, this is your residence. A Qi refining disciple dressed in the costume of the Jiuding Sect led Chen Zhi to a separate courtyard.

This courtyard is not big, but it is fifty or sixty zhang in radius, but it has a spiritual field of more than twenty zhang and two attics, the lower stone attic is connected to the earth fire pool, called the earth fire furnace room, which can be used to refine the pill and refining utensils in it, and the other three-story attic is the hall, the cultivation quiet room and the bedroom, although it is not as good as the cave of the Hehuan Sect, but Chen Zhi is already extremely satisfied.

However, the cost of renting this residence was to require a hundred spirit stones a month, and after paying three hundred spirit stones in pain, he came to this residence under the leadership of a disciple of the Jiuding Sect.

"This is the token of the residence, please don't lose it, there is a ban on the outside of this residence, you can only enter if you wear the token, otherwise even the foundation monks will not be able to enter this place. The Qi Refining Disciple of the Jiuding Sect said as he handed a token to Chen Zhi.

Seeing that Chen Zhi took the token, the Qi Refining Disciple continued: "The seniors have paid the residence spirit stones for three months at a time, during which the seniors please remember to go to the 'Dingsheng Pavilion' to pay the living expenses in the city, of course, if the seniors are too lazy to move or can't act because of the retreat, we will send someone to collect it." ”

"Good. Chen Zhi nodded lightly, waved away the Jiuding Sect Qi Refining Disciple, turned around, and walked into the courtyard.

The walls around the courtyard are with pale cyan prohibitions, so that people can't see the reality inside at all, there is a stone road made of jade at the main gate, and on both sides of the stone road, there is a spiritual field of more than ten zhang.

Because the south of the city is under the spiritual veins, these spiritual fields are moistened by the spiritual veins and appear full of aura, Chen Zhi stepped into the spiritual field, and he could feel the aura overflowing from the soil when he stepped on it!

Seeing such a scene, Chen Zhi was suddenly moved: "No wonder the rent of this house for a month costs a hundred spirit stones!"

With such a strong aura, if some monks who are good at cultivating elixirs are able to take care of it, I am afraid that the elixir cultivated in the spiritual field will be able to mortgage the rent in a year, not to mention the earth fire pool.

The aura of the said Northern Spirit City is not as good as the Yin Moon Peak of the Hehuan Sect, but in terms of the details of these residences, it is far better than the Yin Moon Peak, especially the Earth Fire Pool, if the disciples of the Hehuan Sect want to use the Earth Fire Pool, they also need to pay a certain fee.

"In the future, I can take Fang Tong to live here. Chen Zhi touched his chin and thought about it, but if Fang Tong is really allowed to live here, not only will he need a lot of spirit stones to provide in the future, but he will also need a trustworthy person, although Zhao Ying is a good candidate, but all this needs to be carefully calculated.

While thinking, Chen Zhi walked through the Lingtian, walked into the lower stone attic, pushed open the heavy stone door, and a wave of heat came to his face, the area of the earth furnace room was about seven or eight zhang in size, low in the middle and high around the periphery, and thick cyan jade was paved all around, and these jade stones exuded a coolness. In the center of the room, there is a Qingding and a stone table, the Qingding is surrounded by nine dragons, the dragon tail is connected to the ground, and the dragon's head is lying around the mouth of the ding.

For this earth fire furnace, although Chen Zhi saw it for the first time, he was no stranger to the use of it, in the memory of the old man of the Corpse Demon Palace, this earth fire furnace was used the most.

Walking in front of Qingding, Chen Zhi pinched the trick with both hands, and successively played several tricks towards the center of Qingding, and soon, the red light on Qingding flashed, and the mouth of the nine dragons opened slightly, and at the same time spewed out a red-black flame, almost at the moment when the flame appeared, the temperature of the whole room suddenly rose a few points.

After taking a closer look, Chen Zhi smiled with satisfaction, but he was not in a hurry to alchemy, but played a few tricks to extinguish the Earth Fire Furnace, and then left the Earth Fire Furnace Room and walked into the house next to him.

After spending ten minutes touring the mansion where he lived, he came to the retreat room.

Taking out the Soul Devouring Heavenly Book, Chen Zhi brought up the memories of the Qi Refining Cultivator who had followed him before.

After a cursory glance at the monk's memory, Chen Zhi's brows suddenly furrowed slightly.

This Qi refining cultivator's name is Zong Ming, he is a Qi refining double scattered cultivator in Beiling City, due to his weak strength, even if he goes out of the city to hunt demon beasts, he will die for a lifetime, so he is mixed in Beiling City, and he usually does some errands to survive in Beiling City, but this time he followed Chen Zhi, but it was a condensing monk who spent five spirit stones to hire.

In Beiling City, there are many low-level monks like Zong Ming, most of them are working as tour guides, running errands, and even cheating, cheating, stealing and the like, as for the employer's surname, don't want to know at all, it's just that the employer asked him to go to the "Dingsheng Pavilion" after finding out Chen Zhi's identity, and he would pay him the price of five spirit stones.

Ten spirit stones were enough for Zong Ming to work hard for him, and Zong Ming must not have expected that this time, which seemed to him to be an extremely easy employment, would actually ask for his surname.

Although there were no clues in this person's memory, Chen Zhi had already vaguely guessed that he was probably sent by someone who was plotting against Zhao Ying.

And the reason why the other party spent money to hire Zong Ming must have been calculated long ago, even if he really captured Zong Ming, he would not be able to get useful information from him.

The corners of Chen Zhi's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled sarcastically.

Retracting Zong Ming's memory, he looked forward from Zong Ming's name on the first page of the Soul Devouring Heavenly Book, and soon his gaze fell on a name: Ding Hai.

Reading Ding Hai's memories carefully, Chen Zhi learned a lot of secrets about the Wanbao Zhao family, including Ding Hai's experience of dispersing before joining the Zhao family, and gaining the appreciation of the Zhao family through his efforts after joining the Zhao family.

In the picture, when Ding Hai came to Beiling City to do business a year ago, in front of Ding Hai, there was a monk who wrapped his whole body in a black robe.

Chen Zhi stared at the monk in the picture, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

From this monk, he smelled an extremely familiar smell.

It smells of death and decay!

"Buying me? It's ridiculous! I'm from the Wanbao Zhao family. Ding Hai looked at the black-robed monk in front of him and said disdainfully.

In the black robe, a bewitching voice sounded: "Indeed, the Wanbao Zhao family is rich and rivals the country, but Ding Daoyou should know that no matter how rich the Wanbao Zhao family is, it is still a Xiuzhen family after all, not a sect, and there are some things that cannot be bought with more spirit stones." ”

"Oh, I want to see what it is!" Ding Hai sneered.

There was a coquettish laugh from the black robe, and in an instant, an arm stretched out from the black robe, the arm was as smooth and white as jade, and the five fingers were slender and slender, but Ding Hai's gaze was completely attracted by the purple elixir held on the slender five fingers.

"For example, this Tsukidan. ”

"Hiss!" Chen Zhi gasped, his eyes fixed on the pill in the picture.

"Wait, that's not right!"

Chen Zhi underestimated suspiciously, pinched the trick, and took out a crystal clear jade box from the black mist space, this jade box was the jade box that held Zhuji Dan.

Opening the jade box, Chen Zhi stared at the pill in the box, and immediately raised his head to look at the picture.

At first glance, there is no difference between the Tsukidan in the picture and the Tsukidan in the box, but if you compare it carefully, you will find that the Tsukidan in the box is surrounded by purple qi, and the light is restrained, while the Tsukidan held by the black-robed monk in the picture is slightly faint, and the light on the Dan body is extremely bright.

The expression on Chen Zhi's face suddenly became strange.

The pill given by the black-robed monk in the picture is clearly an imitation of the Tsukidan, and the reason why Chen Zhi was able to determine it was because he had seen this kind of "Tsukidan" in the memory of the old man in the Corpse Demon Palace, and he also knew the production method of this kind of imitation Tsukidan. In fact, it is also very simple, when refining Zhuji Dan, there are often waste pills or waste liquids, just collect these waste pills or waste liquids, and refine them with special methods, you can form a kind of pill that is very similar to the shape, size, and color of Zhuji Dan, but because this pill is made of dregs, not only does it have no effect, but it will also be extremely harmful to the monks, but if you have seen the Zhuji Dan, you will be able to judge the difference between the two, so this kind of pill can only be used to deceive the low-level monks who have no knowledge.

It's just that according to the memory of the old man of the Corpse Demon Palace, this special alchemy method of refining the Waste Pill was created by him, and no one else knew about it!

Chen Zhi's expression suddenly became solemn.

Could it be that this black-robed female monk is also a member of the Corpse Demon Palace?

If that's the case, then he and the Corpse Demon Hall really have a fate!

However, this corpse demon hall used the waste pill to buy Ding Hai, could it be that he was plotting against the Wanbao Zhao family?
